This is my personal blog. I was Branch Secretary of Lambeth UNISON from 1992 to 2017 and a member of the National Executive Council (NEC) of UNISON, the public service union (www.unison.org.uk) from 2003 to 2017.
I am Chair of Brighton Pavilion Constituency Labour Party and of the Sussex Labour Representation Committee (LRC).
Neither the Labour Party nor UNISON is responsible for the contents of this personal blog. (Nor is my employer!)

Public Services - UNISON's vision

The UNISON NEC on Wednesday received an advance copy of a new publication which will be launched at Conference as part of UNISON’s positively public campaign. This is heavily marked “pre-publication advance text not for circulation or quotation” so I shall resist the temptation to cut and paste.

This is generally a very good presentation of our basic policy position of support for public services to be delivered on the basis of the public service ethos and not for private profit and I would urge branches to ensure that their delegates bring copies back from Conference and use it as a basis for campaigning and lobbying locally.
